Deep Future by Eric Brown

Deep Future collects ten tales of the past, present and future by the award-winning author of the best selling Helix. Whether he's writing about aliens coming to Earth, virtual reality, alternate worlds or immortal men, Brown imbues his fictions with a concern for character and an abiding passion for story.

Meet Edward Sinclair, a man grieving the loss of his daughter, and the scientist who just might be able to bring her back from the dead...

Ben Henderson, a gem-cutter, and what happened one summer on a far-away colony world...

The telepathic Tavernier and his involvement with a strange alien race who will change his life forever...

Claudine Hainault, a schoolgirl who turns her back on the chance to live for ever when the Kethani come to Earth...

And many other humans - and aliens - from the imagination of one of Britain's finest SF writers.
